It was some time later that Kang-hoo met Jeon Se-hyeok’s team again.

This was to allow time for Jeon Se-hyeok’s team to collect and organize the loot they had acquired.

There was a thorough division of labor, and since each person achieved what they wanted, the level of satisfaction among them was high.

Jeon Se-hyeok first got Kang-hu’s consent and then sent a hunter to collect Go Kyung-ho’s body.

He also revealed his intention to buy Go Kyung-ho’s belongings from Kang-hoo. Of course, only if Kang-hoo is willing to sell them.

The reason was simple.

Because I was planning to post Go Kyung-ho’s belongings, the evil deeds he committed while alive, and photos to announce his death.

Because there’s no better topic to scare the eclipse crowd.

No one could say anything about this being an insult to the deceased.

If a guy who deserved to die died, wouldn’t it be understandable if people applauded and welcomed him instead? That’s how much ‘human trash’ Go Kyung-ho was.

so.

Kang-hoo sold everything to Jeon Se-hyeok except the items he would use as Jeon Se-hyeok suggested.

After the emotion, the amount received as payment is 45 billion won. The balance in the bank account is 308 billion won. It’s a crazy amount.

After recovering Go Kyung-ho’s body, finishing the looting of the Pyeongtaek branch, and treating the wounded, Jeon Se-hyeok’s team reunited with Kang-hu to share the results of the battle. This was the last confirmation before parting ways.

“You are amazing, Master Mojo. I never thought you would be able to help Go Kyung-ho.”

“Me too. I thought you were going to stop him, but I didn’t expect you to kill him.”

The hunters on the team were quick to praise Kang-hoo’s achievements.

If you asked them whether they were confident enough to fight Go Kyung-ho one-on-one, they would immediately shake their heads.

It is true that he is a hunter who is sincere in his revenge and attack on Eclipse, but he also makes cool-headed judgments about reality.

Jeon Se-hyeok also had a fight with Ko Kyung-ho in the past, and the result was a draw.

“Thank you for your hard work. The most important puzzle was Go Kyung-ho, and Mojo-nim did a great job solving it.”

Jeon Se-hyeok asked to shake hands again.

Although I didn’t feel any particular emotion when I heard compliments from other hunters, I always felt good whenever I heard compliments from Jeon Se-hyeok.

This may be because we know from the original how sincere he was in his quest for revenge against Eclipse.

It feels like we are decorating a page of history together.

“Fake Op… … sir, you’re the best!”

Ban Se-young, who had been calling him by his nickname and unconsciously trying to call him oppa, hurriedly changed the subject.

Just before the battle.

There was one thing Jeon Se-hyeok said to Ban Se-yeong, who was worried.

– Mr. Shin Kang-hoo is not a variable to us, but a constant. Trust me. He always does more than you believe.

Ban Se-young believed in Kang-hoo’s skills more than anyone else, but she still thought that it would be difficult to beat Go Kyung-ho.

But it was a leaning.

Ban Se-young was once again thankful that Kang-hoo was not a member of Eclipse.

Well, if I had met Kang-hoo as an enemy, I would have either run away hard by now, or died before I could escape.

“Thank you all for your hard work.”

Kang-hoo greeted everyone.

Then Jeon Se-hyeok smiled and said while looking at the burning Pyeongtaek branch.

“Eclipse will no longer trust each other. It has been revealed that there is an insider in the Pyeongtaek branch that was formed two years ago.”

“Once again, I feel the importance of patience. This must not have been an easy task.”

“That’s right. Would it be right to say that it’s because I have good friends? Hahaha.”

Jeon Se-hyeok’s smiling face was filled with gratitude and trust in Lee Hyeon-seok.

Although Kang-hu put an end to this battle, it was Lee Hyeon-seok who put the finishing touches on its beginning.

As Jeon Se-hyeok said, there is no guarantee that there will be an insider only in the Pyeongtaek branch.

An organization where trust is broken is prone to collapse due to internal strife.

Especially since Eclipse is a group and den of criminals, they will be even more suspicious of each other.

Jeon Se-hyeok continued speaking.

“This incident will make the Eclipse guys really feel better. We’re going to change our strategy for the time being.”

“I have a rough idea of ​​what the strategy is.”

Jeon Se-hyeok’s thoughts are visible.

Perhaps, as Daejeon was tightening its grip, it was a situation where the outside was attacking in.

Turning the direction, it seemed more likely that they would attack Eclipse’s satellite organization in the province.

I’m sure the list was already made. I’ll have help from Lee Hyun-seok and information from Park Dong-jae.

“Mr. Mojo. Could you join us again next time? Oh, of course I won’t make the offer out of thin air.”

“If it is certain that you will come and go.”

“Okay, I’ll call you back. Okay, then we’ll head straight south!”

Jeon Se-hyeok waved his hand widely, sending a signal to retreat.

Ban Se-young must have felt regretful about her quick separation from Kang-hoo, so she looked back at Kang-hoo several times and followed Jeon Se-hyeok.

There’s a lot I want to say, but I can’t officially call him ‘Kang-hoo’, so I’m holding back on my words.

Instead, I sent a message to my smartphone.

– I did my best this time, but it’s too bad you couldn’t see it! Next time, I’ll really show you!

– yep.

Kang-hoo’s answer was concise.

I don’t think there’s anything more to say.

Wouldn’t this answer suffice?

* * *

After a while.

Kang Dong-hyun, who received a report on the ‘incident’ that occurred at the Pyeongtaek branch, put a cigar in his mouth.

Every time he opened his mouth, acrid smoke enveloped the face of the executive who brought the report.

The executive desperately held back coughs and sneezes.

Kang Dong-hyun’s judgment is really twisted right now. If you offend him, you will go straight to the afterlife.

The executive’s name is Lim Jeong-wan.

He was the 6th-ranking executive in Eclipse and had just returned home yesterday.

He is a master of dual swordsmanship and is one of the few skilled wielders that Kang Dong-hyun respects and acknowledges.

“hmm…….”

Contrary to Lim Jeong-wan’s expectations that he would be extremely angry, Kang Dong-hyun only slightly frowned and seemed to suppress his emotions as much as possible.

Lim Jeong-wan was cautious with his words.

It’s best not to get too carried away with the subject until he brings it up first. It’s a learned fear.

As expected.

As Im Jeong-wan stood silently, Kang Dong-hyun spoke first.

“What’s the situation with the Fortuna Guild?”

“Isn’t this the war of the Hunters of the Celestial Kingdom? The case is incomparably bigger than our own. In one day, 500 Hunters died.”

“I’m sure you were sad that your studies abroad ended early. I wish you had stayed in America a little longer.”

“No. I thought I was just receiving help and eating foreign food without being able to help the captain. Now is the time to repay the favor.”

“What do you think about this incident?”

“… … .”

“Speak freely. I’m not asking you to nitpick your words. You’re being reasonable.”

“Let me be honest with you.”

“Okay. Tell me.”

“If you just look at the situation, I think you were really caught off guard. Even Go Kyung-ho died.”

“Oh. I was completely taken aback.”

Phew.

The amount of smoke that Kang Dong-hyun inhales is extraordinary.

He could have just held it in his mouth and spit it out, but he swallowed the acrid smoke whole.

“The Pyeongtaek branch itself is not that big, so I think the personnel loss can be compensated for. The problem is symbolism.”

“If I summarize?”

“This is bad news for our organization. It’s not just that our first significant branch that expanded its influence was hit. And on top of that, there was an insider involved.”

“Fuck.”

Kang Dong-hyun immediately got angry and swore at the word insider.

Lim Jeong-wan changed the subject.

“In Hunter Gram, Jeon Se-hyeok is drawing aggro as if he killed Go Kyung-ho. But the captain knows better than anyone that it wasn’t.”

“I checked the CCTV footage. The guy was inside the Pyeongtaek branch when Go Kyung-ho died.”

“Someone moved the special task force. But that special task force cut off Go Kyung-ho, who was level 400, and killed him. It means that there is someone scarier than Jeon Se-hyeok.”

“What kind of kid is this? Did Lee Hyun-seok himself move it? No, if he did, we would have known first.”

“Finding out who that guy is is the priority. Finding out the insider or destroying the symbolism is a later issue. If someone is powerful enough to kill Go Kyung-ho, the captain is also in danger.”

“It goes without saying that you too.”

“Yes. It’s clear that ‘that guy’ is someone who moves with Jeon Se-hyeok. We need to find him quickly.”

“It’s like a mountain as you go along.”

Kang Dong-hyun eventually couldn’t hold back his boiling anger and drank the vodka he had filled with ice.

The mysterious being who killed Go Kyung-ho.

He is the key figure in this case.

If Go Kyung-ho had been killed without even having a chance to escape.

Even putting himself aside, this means that he is a guy who can kill any executive of Eclipse.

He will never be an easy guy.

at that time.

A voice call came through Hunter Gram’s security account.

Although the sound quality isn’t great, the Hunter Gram’s closed nature makes it a popular voice calling system.

The other person’s account name was randomly created, so I couldn’t tell who it was, but I knew who would contact me.

When Kang Dong-hyun gave a wink, Im Jeong-wan immediately left the room.

After he left, Kang Dong-hyun received a call.

“yes.”

– grow.

“Brother Yuji?”

– uh.

“What’s going on?”

– What do you think will happen?

Every single word Yuji said was full of sharp edges.

Kang Dong-hyun also knew the reason well, as he had heard the news from Japan.

“As expected.”

– I’m trying to enter Korea. I need you to clear the way for me. Official entry is difficult.

“It is possible.”

– You said you don’t like that guy named Shin Kang-hoo? You said you wanted to kill him? I’ll kill him.

The moment he heard Yuji’s words, Kang Dong-hyun’s face lit up.

In fact, I was waiting for this answer.

Given Yuuji’s personality, he would probably want to get revenge on Kang-hoo, who hit him so hard.

What Yuuji suffered from Ganghu was not just a physical wound, but a deep wound to his pride as well.

I secretly hoped Yuuji would come forward quickly, but it seems he’s going for revenge as soon as he recovers.

“Come. I will make the way for you.”

-What about the deposit?

“What about the deposit? Since my older brother is coming, I should naturally open the way. I’ll contact you shortly.”

– I’ll definitely kill that bastard, so just wait. It’d be better if you figured out where he is.

“Yes, I understand.”

The call was disconnected within a few minutes.

Kang Dong-hyun laughed again.

“Shin Gang-hu… … .”

He’s the kind of guy who gets angry just by saying his name.

How tenacious and long has the evil relationship that started at the Cheongmyeong concentration camp continued?

Because of this guy, my beloved subordinate died and I also gave up my first raid on the Limitless Mana Dungeon.

In fact, the events of that day were treated as a dark history among the subordinates.

It is natural for someone who is supposedly the leader of an organization to react that way when he misses an intruder right before his eyes.

Because Kang-hoo had been held back just as much as Jeon Se-hyeok, it was great that Yu-ji had stepped forward.

A Japanese sashimi knife of excellent craftsmanship and sharpness that is second to none is coming in.

It seemed like it would be fun to draw a picture.
